A non-stop, shoestring trip with more adventures and a helluva lot more smarts than you'll find in most American movies...All in all, there's more plain fun to be had here in 10 minutes than in a whole hour on the road with that jerk Indiana Jones.

Jay Scott

The Globe and Mail (Toronto)

This is the kind of movie that baffles Hollywood, because it isn't made from any known formula and doesn't follow the rules.

Roger Ebert

Chicago Sun-Times
